What types of commercial doors can be opened during a lockout?

Locksmiths trained in commercial hardware can handle standard office doors, glass storefront doors with aluminum frames, steel security doors, and doors equipped with panic hardware or electric locks.

How does a locksmith open a door with a panic bar?

Panic bars can sometimes be bypassed by manipulating the latch mechanism from the exterior using specialized tools, though some installations require access through adjacent windows or alternate entry points.

Will the locksmith be able to make a key on-site?

Yes, if the lock is still operational after entry, a new key can be cut based on the lock code or by decoding the cylinder, allowing you to secure the property immediately.

How long does it typically take to regain access to a locked commercial property?

Entry times vary depending on lock type and door construction, but most standard commercial lockouts are resolved within thirty minutes once the locksmith arrives and assesses the situation.

Is the service covered by insurance if something goes wrong?

Locks-Are-Us carries full bonding and insurance, so any accidental damage or liability concerns during the service call are covered under the company's policy.
